Mediterranean Masterpiece

This omelette has mushrooms, eggplant, onion, and zucchini in it.
And feta cheese. And eggs. Daddy called this one "Mediterranean Masterpiece."
He said the flavors went well together, even though he's not a fan of eggplant.
But he always eats my omelettes, even if he doesn't like them that much.

We sauteed all the veggies in Mommy's cast iron skillet.

The veggies plus the feta cheese went into one big omelette that we cut up
and shared. Daddy got the biggest piece, Mommy and I got the  same sized
pieces and Ollie got the piece that fell apart.

The Napoleon

Today I made one big omelette, and we split it up into four pieces. Daddy called it The Napoleon because some of the ingredients were French and we ate croissants with it, and because he only got a small piece of the omelette, but he said it had a lot of personality.

You always have to wash your hands when you are cooking.

We had parsley, watercress, bacon, salsa, and garlic roule cheese
in our omelette today.

The eggs look like honey.

Our omelette looks like a pizza.

Mmmmmmmm!

Daddy has a big meal.

Ollie!

My Cheesy Secret

I have a secret ingredient in today's omelette. I'll give you a hint. It starts with "B."

I chose thyme and parsley because they
would go good in my omelette.

Cracking eggs is messy.

This is very good smoked cheese. When it melted inside
the omelette it was delicious.

Here's how you know how many eggs to use: One for each
person and one for the pot. That's Nanny's rule.

Daddy couldn't guess my secret ingredient. He named today's omelette the Cheesy Secret.

Here are my ingredients...

The secret ingredient in my omelette is...
BREAD! 

Folding an omelette in half is fun.

This is Ollie eating the omelette. Delicious!

Look at Ollie!

I cleaned up the kitchen too!

The Northumbrian

These eggs still have a feather from the chicken on them.

Dad called this omelette The Northumbrian because all the
ingredients come from this area of England. I used Cumberland
sausages, goat cheese, eggs, and a mix of watercress, baby spinach,
and rocket (or arugula).

Cutting the sausages was very hard because the sausages were
thick and I used a sharp knife.

Flipping the omelette is kind of easy.

This is the omelette, already flipped in the pan.

Mommy made toast to go with our omelettes because one
omelette for breakfast isn't enough and I'm always still hungry.

This is us being goofy and eating our omelettes.

Omelette #17

I am next to the bacon cooking.

I am cracking eggs.

This is our bowl of eggs. They've got peas in them.

Mature cheddar cheese, English peas, streaky bacon, and sauteed mushrooms.

Dad named this omelette "Omelette #17" because our new apartment's address is #17.

Grandaddy and Grandma Donna Love My Marvelous Omelettes!

Since we are moving to England in a couple of weeks, my Grandaddy and Grandma Donna came down from Tennessee to visit us. It was great! The omelette turned out really good and so they named it Merrit's Marvelous Omelette.

Eggs get whisked with a fork because that's how I like to do it.

Today's omelette's ingredients are: Ham,
artichoke hearts, white cheddar cheese, and eggs.

You have to evenly spread your ingredients into
the omelette because if you don't it's going to just
taste bad in the one spot.

Mommy made hash browns.

Ollie loves Grandaddy. He's wearing his hat.

This is Grandaddy and Ollie. Ollie is going to
whack the table with that spoon!

Everyone's plate is empty. Breakfast was delicious!

The 2011 Omelette

Happy New Year! Today is January 2, 2011 and we're having omelettes. Eric the Magician and Ann visited us for my Mom and Dad's New Year's party on Friday night. They love my omelettes.

This omelette had a lot of good ingredients in it. Parmesan cheese, asparagus, and black-bean-and-corn salsa. Like usual, we just use up what we have in our fridge.

Ollie's always getting into my eggs.

Me with a fork. I'm mixing eggs.

We made potato pancakes with leftover mashed potatoes from dinner last night. The other stuff
in this picture was for the omelettes. Parmesan cheese, asparagus, and salsa.

I want my omelettes to be round but they're usually bumpy like this.

That's sour cream and applesauce on the potato pancake.

Eric is a big fan of my breakfast. He's saying, "This is really good, Merrit!"
